The company says the 184 is autonomous, so all the passenger has to do is enter in their destination in the smartphone app, sit back, and let the drone take over.
There's no option to take control of the 184 remotely. The cockpit is empty, apart from a stand to place a smartphone or tablet and a cup holder.
'I think in all of us there is that little kid in all of us that says I want to fly,' said Yan. 'I don’t want to get a pilot license after five or 10 hours of flying, I want to do it right away. We’re making that dream happen.'

Holy crap, if they can show a proven safety record then...

I don't like that there's no option for manual control

Computer virus would make this drop out of the sky with no manual option

Could a computer virus override the manual option, even if there was one?

Yea, I'm not going to be leading the charge to hop in this thing first. If those stupid blue hover boards explode and pitch fat people i can only imagine what this thing will do.
